By Hisam Memon [date: 2nd Ma...Long Live Shikarpur <br /><br />By Hisam Memon [date: 2nd May 2009] <br /><br /> <br /><br /> <br /><br />Yes, Shikarpur remained the most urbanized area of the Sindh, Some feudal are governing and there are some kind of vendetta there, some tribes fight and kill each other over trifles often.<br /><br />Karo Kari [honor killing] is Balouch oriented tradition; people kill their sister, wives, and mothers emotionally in the name of honor [Ghairat-famous Sindhi word for honor].<br /><br />Police follows feudal [Waderas] and bribe is common in this connection. Some officer [SPs/DPOs] did well to enforce law there e.g. Sanaullah Abbasi, Abdul Khaliq Shaikh, AD Khuwaja, and Khadim Hussian Rind is doing well now a days. <br /><br />But some officers remained accomplices in crime of bribe and etc. Even some to the level of SHO used to take money of Karo and Kari. [I do not know, is it still in practice or not, but I know one thing that system has not changed yet] <br /><br /> <br /><br />One more thing is this, General Musharraf’s system of grass root level / Local Government, made the feudal stronger even police works under a Nazim, and Nasim in interior Sindh are belonging to feudal class. It has fueled the fire.<br /><br />Though Shikarpur produced a man Aftab Shaban Mirani, [who represented PPP], who remained Chief Minister of Sindh, but could not do any thing permanently for peace and development, he only gave some jobs to his closer ones. That type of lollypop is no used perpetually.<br /><br />Our civil society is remaining silent because there is feudal system. In clear we may say people cannot take action, there are threats for them, either they will be killed, kidnapped or harassed.<br /><br />Instead this, Shikarpur looks historical, some buildings are there and historical symbols have not been vanished thoroughly. <br /><br /> <br /><br />I have been told that the famous picnic point Shahi Bagh is being reconstructed, I have gotten some pictures, and it really looks superb and nice. One bad thing has been done there; trees of different kinds have been cut down. <br /><br /> <br /><br />Once Shikarpur was not only dealing with Kandahar and Bukhara through Bolan Pass but it was famous for its greenery also. People have written that when they used to come towards Shikarpur, they would feel the fragrance of different kind of flowers, trees and etc. That is why, it was green belt. Now it’s deforested and barren type of land, outskirt still looks green due to various crops.<br /><br />Govt should do some thing seriously for the development and peace of Shikarpur.<br /><br />We hope, it will emerge an other Japan, if the state is taking some real initiatives in this regard<br /><br />There are many learned people who are working on Shikarpur, it does not mean that Shikarpur has been died completely, it survives yet and Shikarpuri people know how to live gracefully and respectfully.<br /><br />Some people are migrating from Shikarpur to Karachi , Hyderabad and other cities of Pakistan , because they need good jobs and livelihood.<br /><br />We are proud of Shikarpur, we learnt every thing there and it grew us a rational being.<br /><br />Salam Shikarpur! <br /><br />[Long live Shikarpur!]<br /><br /><br /><br />Hisam Memon <br />Mobile# +92 0334 3675045 [Karachi, Sindh, Pakistan]Emails: memonhisam@yahoo. co.ukmemonhisam@hotmail. commemonhisam@gmail. comHisam Memonhttp://www.geocities.com/rf_shikarpurnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11399801.post-5077991307989426642008-03-25T04:30:00.000-07:002008-03-25T04:30:00.000-07:00helloi was born in a small village on main nationa...hello<BR/>i was born in a small village on main national highway called sultankot with great political and agriculture contribution to dist shikarpur. shikarpur today is like a garbage can with no origianl historical essence which would be found when hindus rulled this city. since the existence of pakistan muslims have not done any thing for this historical city rather gateway town of central asia.Famours schools with reputaion,hospital,gardens,towers,vetnary hospitals,all were built during english raj or with local contribution before partition.Is there any one to bring back the charms of shikapur.<BR/>Dr Agha inamullah khan<BR/>0333-3989724Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11399801.post-1174124192333747712007-08-28T03:32:00.002-07:002007-08-28T03:32:00.002-07:00hi my name is Yasir arain and i were living in shi...hi my name is Yasir arain and i were living in shikarpur. shikarpur is very historical place our ansister told us here hundo people workship in our God and perfrom in poja pat.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11399801.post-70056324028631795072007-08-28T03:32:00.001-07:002007-08-28T03:32:00.001-07:00hi my name is Yasir arain and i were living in shi...hi my name is Yasir arain and i were living in shikarpur. shikarpur is very historical place our ansister told us here hundo people workship in our God and perfrom in poja pat.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11399801.post-86035852522050172812007-08-28T03:32:00.000-07:002007-08-28T03:32:00.000-07:00hi my name is Yasir arain and i were living in shi...hi my name is Yasir arain and i were living in shikarpur. shikarpur is very historical place our ansister told us here hundo people workship in our God and perfrom in poja pat.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
